  • Whats The Difference Between The Two Different Thule Hull-A-Port Kits?
    The difference between Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier # TH849000 and # TH849000-97 is the mounting hardware. # TH849000 comes with hardware to secure it to any Thule crossbar via T-Slot and the other type of Thule Hull-A-Port # TH849000-97 is strictly for a square bar roof rack systems or crossbars with T-Slots. If you were wanting to put the Thule Hull-A-Port # TH849000-97 on the roof of your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon touring with flush rails you'll need the Thule SquareBar Evo Crossbars...

  • Can the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier Be Left On My Crossbars
    The Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier for SquareBars - J-Style - Folding - 1 Kayak # TH849000 is designed to fit in the T-slot channels on your crossbars, so in this mounting configuration the hardware should be well protected from the elements. As with all roof rack mounted accessories, you'll need them removed when going through car washes and such, but they do fold down fairly compact to allow you to get in and out of garages, etc.. The weather stripping on the channels on your bars...

  • Will the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Fit on Factory Crossbars
    I may have a solution for you, but the Thule Hull-a-Port Aero # TH849000-97 can only be installed on square crossbars and the Hull-a-Port Aero # TH849000 is only designed to fit in the T-Slots found on aftermarket crossbars. Neither option is designed to fit on the factory crossbars on your 2021 Lexus RX 450h, but there are similar carriers that will work. Since you have factory crossbars I recommend considering the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style or Post Style - Folding...

  • Kayak Carrier for a Thule Roof Rack on a Leer Camper Shell on a 2017 Ford F-250
    Provided that your Leer cap can hold the weight of the 2 kayaks the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero # TH849000-97 is a great option seeing as the cap already has the bars. The JayLow # Y04073, which is very similar, will also fit the Thule bars. The JayLow is a more stylish carrier and would ultimately be easier to mount to the crossbars so it is a solid contender. Another helpful item is a tire step, # ALL647596, which you could use on the vehicle tire(s) when loading or unloading the kayaks....

  • Recommended Kayak Carrier for a 2014 Toyota Prius
    This is a fun riddle to start the morning off with! I would be more then happy to help you Dana but I have no idea what Thule roof rack system you bought from LL Bean or have any way of looking that up. However, I do have 10 different Thule Kayak carriers like the Hull-A-Port item # TH849000-97. All of our Thule Kayak systems like this attach to roof racks which we have quite a few that will fit your 2014 Toyota Prius. If you could find a part number on your Thule system I may be able...

  • Folding J-Style Kayak Carriers For a 2019 Lexus N300h With Factory Roof Rack
    The Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier # TH849000 attaches to T-Slots on roof rack crossbars. While the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier # TH849000-97 includes the Thule square bar adapter to attach to Thule SquareBars. We also have a similarly designed Kuat Class 4 V2 Kayak Carrier # KU53VR that will clamp around crossbars up to 2-1/2" tall and 4-1/4" wide if the factory crossbars on your 2019 Lexus N300h does not have the T-Slots for roof accessories.

    While Thule doesn't have any folding kayak carriers that fit your 2020 Toyota Highlander at this time (August 2020) Yakima has their JayLow # Y04073 which is folding like you want and is confirmed to fit your factory crossbars.

  • Will the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier Work On Factory Crossbars
    I wasn;t able to find anything matching that part number, but what I can say is only the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # TH834 will work with factory crossbars. This is a J-Style carrier that can hold up to 1 kayak that is 36" wide,\ and weighs up to 75 lbs.

  • Recommended Roof Rack, Ski Carrier, And Kayak Carrier For 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
    The roof rack you mentioned in your question would work great on your Jeep. Part # TH300R and part # TH712500 combine to give you a gutter-mount roof rack with the sturdy square crossbars. The Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier, part # TH7326 will fit the square crossbars and have a capacity of 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards, and has a limited lifetime warranty. This carrier comes with locks already installed, so if you want the roof rack and the carrier to use the same keys for...
